the 7th Trumpet

The 7th Trumpet

12-27-08

Three and a half years ago the Lord gave me a dream wherein I saw the ending of the 7th seal, the ½ hour of silence, and the beginning of the sounding of the 1st trumpet. I have copied that dream at the end of this prophecy. There was also a second dream on the ½ hour of silence given, which I did not include. As time has passed, the Lord has spoken a few words about the times we now live in. This morning the Lord brought a word about the 7th trumpet, which follows. May God add His blessings to our lives as we seek His face today, and truth which will keep us in His love. Amen

“I hate the cruelty of those who are mean or indifferent to My people. They blame each one who has a trial as if he were in sin, yet see the body as a corporate body when they seek blessing for their own good. These are men in authority who say “Speak not mean words over my church, for God is love” but they themselves do not perform My love individually to the members of the body because it is a burden to them. So I will not answer their prayers. As in times of old (Micah 3) I will be silent.

Indeed, many have sought Me for their own gain, that they may have a reputation amongst men with their words. But in My silence, they have spoken anyway, not seeking My face for approval. They have gone before Me and not waited on My presence. Presumptuous are they, and in their dark hearts they have not considered that I know My body. I know each individual need. I hear the sigh of the widow and see the tears of orphans. Because they do not hear from Me, these leaders make their own ways, and deep are the grooves of their footsteps so that many may find them and follow in them. These leaders have cast off care and heaped to themselves the harvest of the praises of men. “Simplify” they say, and so they cut the labor of love from their lives so that they may be care-free.

To the prophets who prophesy in My name; In the Day of the 7th trumpet there will be a release of revelatory prophecy. And this Day is upon you. Do you think to prophesy sweet things when the words in My servant’s stomach were bitter? Do you think to set hearts at ease when the time for the accomplishment of My Word is upon the earth? What work is it you seek to do with your words? Fir it is a time of great hardship and calamity for which many of you are not prepared. How will you lead My people, you who seek peace and safety for yourselves first? How will you prophesy My vision to the people, you who have been busy building your own kingdoms? A great Day of prophecy is on the earth, a day of unsealing. Who will endure to the end with My words in their mouth? Only6 those trained by obedience to My Spirit. There is scant little time left to run after eye salve and faith tried like gold. Every inconvenience and unpleasantry sent to you by My hand was sent to train you. For those who reject what I send, shall they stand with the righteous? Where will the disobedient buy time to pass through the fires of trial and affliction that their hearts will become pure and their robes unspotted? I, God, would be unjust to delay the bringing to pass of My Word.

To those who love ease and the praises of men I say, you will have seasons of grief. You will begin to notice the silence, and see others put before you in the kingdom. I will not deliver you from temptation, to the end that the sins of your own heart would chasten you into true repentance. Only then will you be washed and remain clean.”

First Trumpet

5-7-05 dream

In this dream there was a band of about 4 people and myself in the sky. A young man was the flutist and the rest were adults. When the young flutist played, I responded back to him by playing on a short mouth piece flute. We smiled at each other and knew we were waiting for something or someone.

In front of us in the sky was a whale, about 40 ft away. It didn’t move except to open it’s mouth in our direction. We commented on it, and wondered about the whale, but didn’t feel any danger.

Then the whale let out a barely-perceptible sound that was like the sound of a horn. A less-defined creature appeared in the sky above the whale, dark, dark red, like dried blood. It had tentacles like liquid blobs which moved out from its body, and down towards the whale. With 2 of these blobs it engulfed the whale. I said “Did you see that!?” But the others hadn’t been watching. I was alarmed and thought we should leave.

Interpretation – In this dream we were suspended in silence in the 2nd heaven. The whale represents the seventh seal (fullness of the seals, or a large seal = a whale). During the seventh seal the first trumpet is sounded, so I heard the beginning of the first trumpet. At this same time there is blood in the sky, mixed with hail and fire. The blood represents the protection of the blood of the Lamb for God’s people during judgment. Fire tests the works of Man, and hail is the judgment of God. Because I saw the blood moving we know now that God is sealing His people so that the plagues will “pass over” them, just as the blood of the Lamb on the door posts caused the angel of death to pass over the children of Israel when the angel of death came to Egypt. The barely perceptible sound indicates that these things are occurring in the heavenlies and just beginning to reach down to us on earth. The six seals have passed, and the seventh contains the sounding of the first trumpet, which has begun to sound. May we all be found ready, waiting for the Bridegroom, with lamps trimmed. Amen.
